Oh man. was. this. funny.

PS – feel very, very lucky that you got a $1 bill. They are very, very rare these days! Canadian Tire money, however, is rather prevalent. It’s actually going to be in a guest post I have later this week.

I must make sure not to overtip strippers due to the lack of appropriate bill. There are a lot of jokes about flicking change at strippers here… heh.

@Mrs. Frugalista – Baby $ said he needed $100 :)

Thanks everyone for the great comments. Sometimes I take pencil to paper and weird things happen.Perhaps I should not lick the lead in the pencil first?

The Canadian $1 coin (known as a Loonie because of the etching of a loon on the coin) just celebrated its 25th birthday. There is now an entire generation of Canadians who know nothing of $1 and $2 bills and perhaps are over tipping strippers as we still have $5 bills.

If you look up Loonie on the Wikipedia you will see this note:
“This article is about the coin. For the Canadian dollar as a currency, see Canadian dollar. For a mentally ill person, see lunatic.”

Oh Wikipedia, it’s a fine line.

I would mock Canadian money, but I love Monopoly. :-) Great letter SlackerJo! And good for you for not defacing the queen. :-)

I love insight #2! If you came by my place of employment you would think that we all were in the 1%. Sometimes I think I made a wrong turn and pulled into a BMW dealership.

This is very funny. I admit that I really laughed my heart out. This guy completed my day! I aim to live on 50% of my pay within the next 2 years.

Thanks for sharing this with us. I don’t think I would be able to come up with so many funny things, even if I tried. Sorry, I’m not sharing one of my dollars with you (unless you need it for Baby $$). I’ve got a mortgage principal pay off extravaganza going on here!
